Whatever you think you see so plainly is colored by your bias. The Constitution is a much solider bulwark against losing our rights than you believe. And the United States is the super-power in the world. If you think that the leader of the lone super-power shouldn't think about global issues, then you are truly myopic in your thinking. We live on a planet, and the planet is shared by numerous other peoples from other countries, other cultures, and who experience the world differently from us. If we want to thrive in the global community, and we do, then we have to address global issues. Isolationism isn't just a bad policy, it's a stupid policy.

No blather, facts. Obama has the most liberal socialist communist people surrounding him. Anyone in their right mind would know what Obama is. No conspiracy . Obama is what he is. The spread the wealth around kind of guy.

The spread of communism is real..and it is spreading the ideas to the people first and then achieving the purpose later.

No matter how much you claim that President Obama is a socialist he is not. I am and he ain't. The differences are simple. I would have worked to:

Withdraw from all of our Mideast wars and commitments. Substantially cut military spending starting with mercenary contractors

Implemented a government owned and operated Universal Health Insurance system.

Revised the Income tax to an all sources system with an 85th percentile deduction.

Revised Social Security as detailed elsewhere.

Started replacing privately owned coal/oil and eventually gas fired electric power plants with modern government owned and operated nuclear facilities wholesaling power through a Government Power Authority.

Started a Constitutional Amendment guaranteeing medical privacy and protecting the individual right to determine their own health care. The pro choice amendment.

Drastically revised the Farm support system to reward small farmers and stop giving money to Monsanto et al.

Created a nationwide high speed and very high speed transportation system to replace domestic air travel by 80+%.

Eliminated the bans on currently illegal drugs and sold them through government owned stores with the profits to be used for rehabilitation. Allowed MJ to be sold alongside cigarettes.

There are more.

These communists who have apparently infiltrated our country are so stealth-like, I suspect they may be Commie/Ninja mutations. Forget the zombie apocalypse, we need to smoke these commie ninjas out before they take over! First the White House, then the whole USA, and then the whole planet! Quick, someone fetch me my tinfoil, I must fashion a hat....

If they wanted to take over a country, wouldn't it be easier if they focused on a previous communist country?
As there are only 2 left seems they can't keep their own ranks, much less recruit new.

What a silly thread.

Amusing, yes ... but still silly.
